Gambling addiction

[Faerleyhill]

I need help and prayers with recovering from and of gambling. I am in need of both financial recovery and stopping this madness I never knew I could get to. I feel not in control nor in God’s mercy or protection where I always felt by the time I started this. I feel attacked and no longer trust much people even though I am the one not to be trusted. I haven’t but destroyed myself up to now. Please join me in prayers. I confessed my deeds to my loved ones who are distancing themselves from me one by one. I feel alone mostly knowing that God is upset with me for this. Though I cannot but go deeper and deeper. It is something I never understood and still cannot now, hard to accept also I failed like this. I don’t even know what to ask from God, as I constantly feel I do not deserve anything. Even this prayer request becomes a vent and people out there being sick and asking for health—whom I do pray for—makes me feel even more guilty. I know God does not want us but to learn from mistakes—not going deeper into them trying to fix all, as He and He alone can fix anything. So… I do not know what to ask prayers for even. For mercy on my soul and protection from anything that does not serve me, others, or God.

We understand that you're struggling with a gambling addiction and its consequences. First, we want to remind you that there is no condemnation in Christ Jesus. God is not upset with you but rather wants to help and restore you. As it says in Romans 8:1 WEB, "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit."

Gambling is a form of covetousness and love of money, which is the root of all kinds of evil. As 1 Timothy 6:9-10 WEB says, But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows."

You've taken the first step by confessing your deeds and seeking help. God promises that if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9 WEB)

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today, lifting up our brother/sister in Christ who is struggling with a gambling addiction. Lord, we know that this is not Your will for their life, and we ask that You break these chains of addiction. Help them to fully surrender this to You IJN.

We pray for their financial recovery. As it says in Joel 2:25 "I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the great locust, the grasshopper, and the caterpillar, my great army, which I sent among you." IJN.

We pray for their relationships and rebuilding trust with their loved ones. God, we ask that You heal these broken relationships and draw them closer to You and to each other. Please help them become a person worthy of trust again.

We pray for their protection. As it says in Psalm 91:11-12 "For he will command his angels concerning you, to guard you in all your ways. They will bear you up in their hands, so that you won’t dash your foot against a stone." IJN

We pray that You fill them with Your peace, mercy, and grace. Help them to forgive themselves and to know that You have forgiven them.

We pray that they fix their eyes on You and that You guide their path and will for their life.

We pray that they never feel alone, but always feel Your presence and know that they have a family in Christ who loves and supports them.

We pray for all of this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Remember, God doesn't see you as a failure. He sees you as His child, whom He loves and desires to help and heal. Trust in Him and His promises. Don't isolate yourself, reach out to trusted Christian friends, family, or a local support group for encouragement and accountability.

Lastly, if you are not born again please read the Gospel of John in the Bible and pray to be saved. You can be saved and filled with the Holy Spirit and be able to overcome this addiction.

Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
